>Using a compressor like LZMA or Oodle Leviathan that has "pos bits" ("suband3") in the context for encoding literals

Does zstd also have this post bits or is it better to use vints if zstd is used?

sub-byte values always suck to deal with; but at least they're often amenable being encoded with pre-computed tables.
